    just got my kid's books for 2nd class and the English readers are the Sunny Street series. Just flicking through them and they look a bit dull, I cant imagine i'd ever have bought them if they werent school books.
    Is there any particular reason why current books for their age arent picked? in our own case we found that the best way to get our kids to read was to give them books that were "page turners" or had a decent bit of humour in them.

    In our school we also use class novels from 1st up.
